After reading through some of this board not sure if I'm a fly fisherman or fishing with a fly. I like tying flies and catching on something I tied myself even if it is a copy of someone elses. Never tried to glue a sluggo on a hook but I admit at the end of somedays ,if I only had glue something might get stuck on there. I've seen sometimes when fly guy out catches the bait guy but not when I was the fly guy , I was the bait guy. This spring was the first time trout fishing I felt that I did better with a fly than I did with bait. Had a few times that looked like it was going to be the big fly bonanza but it took a while to get the third one in that I guess the blitz was over. Supposed to go jig fishing with my brother tonight but it will be hard to beat the last trip to the flats with a fly pole. Didn't catch anything the wind got strong but seeing a hundred or so fish cruising in a few feet of water while your trying to drop a fly in front of a small school is pretty hard to beat.
